  • Recurring Slope Lineae: Evidence of Liquid Water on Mars Today?
    Recurring Slope Lineae: Evidence of liquid water on Mars today? The High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) on Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) has monitored surface feature changes over several Mars years. One of the more intriguing observations has been of the seasonal occurrence of numerous (multi-thousand) dark streak features advancing down equator-facing slopes in several mid-latitude and equatorial regions of the southern hemisphere. Termed Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL), the streak behavior resembles that of a fluid mobilized by increasing surface temperatures – initiating in spring, incrementally extending downslope through summer, and then fading in the fall and winter seasons. The phenomenon is then seen to repeat the following spring. RSLs are narrow in width (meter-scale), requiring our best resolution imaging to see them, but may extend down-slope for hundreds of meters before terminating. Science teams involved in the discovery of RSL have been cautious in concluding a water-based origin since most of the RSL locations are found in environments well outside the pressure-temperature stability field for liquid water. However, the presence of salts such as perchlorate can depress freezing points by tens of degrees. MRO Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM) observations of multiple RSL locations show hydrated mineral absorption signals most consistent with magnesium perchlorate, magnesium chlorate and sodium perchlorate. That raises the possibility of a Mg-, Na-, Cl-rich brine that would also leave these minerals as a kind of evaporite deposit. However, the amount of water, if present, has been constrained at one location by independent Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS; Mars Odyssey) data analysis and a numerical heat transfer model to 0 wt.%, and up to 3 wt.% given observational uncertainties, unlikely to support a sustained flow.

Griggs The Chuckanut Formation, a series of strongly folded, terrestrial sandstones and shales, outcrops in northwestern Washington. The rocks have been previously assigned an age of Upper Cretaceous to lower Eocene based upon plant megafossils. The microfossil flora of the standard section along the east shore of Samish Bay was examined in order to determine the relationship of the Chuckanut to the Burrard (middle Eocene) of British Columbia. A zonation and envir- onmental interpretation of the standard section was desired for further refinement of the geological history of Tertiary rocks in the Pacific Northwest. Twenty—two samples, representing 9,H8u feet of section, were examined for palynomorphs. Data were collected for both relative frequency and stratigraphic analysis. Seventy— nine palynomorphs are described. The Samish Bay section is divided into three zones. The zonation is based on changes in the relative frequency f and the stratigraphic range of the palynomorphs. These ’ '_ ‘ V'II -7 r1 ' < P812631 ALL. '.,I I» ) I— (1 0').

SMPs are defined such that they would be suffi- ciently long-lived so as to still exist in the cosmos either as Big Bang relics or secondary collision products, and sufficiently massive such that they are typically beyond the reach of any conceiv- able accelerator-based experiment. The discovery of SMPs would address a number of important questions in modern physics, such as the origin and composition of dark matter and the unifi- cation of the fundamental forces. This review outlines the scenarios predicting SMPs and the techniques used at non-collider experiments to look for SMPs in cosmic rays and bound in mat- ter. The limits so far obtained on the fluxes and matter densities of SMPs which possess various detection-relevant properties such as electric and magnetic charge are given.

  • VOLCANIC INFLUENCE OVER FLUVIAL SEDIMENTATION in the CRETACEOUS Mcdermott MEMBER, ANIMAS FORMATION, SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO
    VOLCANIC INFLUENCE OVER FLUVIAL SEDIMENTATION IN THE CRETACEOUS McDERMOTT MEMBER, ANIMAS FORMATION, SOUTHWESTERN COLORADO Colleen O’Shea A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE August: 2009 Committee: James Evans, advisor Kurt Panter, co-advisor John Farver ii Abstract James Evans, advisor Volcanic processes during and after an eruption can impact adjacent fluvial systems by high influx rates of volcaniclastic sediment, drainage disruption, formation and failure of natural dams, changes in channel geometry and changes in channel pattern. Depending on the magnitude and frequency of disruptive events, the fluvial system might “recover” over a period of years or might change to some other morphology. The goal of this study is to evaluate the preservation potential of volcanic features in the fluvial environment and assess fluvial system recovery in a probable ancient analog of a fluvial-volcanic system. The McDermott Member is the lower member of the Late Cretaceous - Tertiary Animas Formation in SW Colorado. Field studies were based on a southwest-northeast transect of six measured sections near Durango, Colorado. In the field, 13 lithofacies have been identified including various types of sandstones, conglomerates, and mudrocks interbedded with lahars, mildly reworked tuff, and primary pyroclastic units. Subsequent microfacies analysis suggests the lahar lithofacies can be subdivided into three types based on clast composition and matrix color, this might indicate different volcanic sources or sequential changes in the volcanic center. In addition, microfacies analysis of the primary pyroclastic units suggests both surge and block-and-ash types are present.

  • RSL), Described in the 5 August 2011 Science Report “Seasonal Flows on Warm Martian Slopes”
    Animated GIFs to illustrate activity of Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL), described in the 5 August 2011 Science report “Seasonal Flows on Warm Martian Slopes”. All of these animated GIF files consist of a series of orthorectified HiRISE images over locations with RSL activity. Orthorectification corrects oblique images to show how the scene would appear from directly overhead. We perform this using HiRISE Digital Terrain Models (DTMs) at a scale of 1 m/posting. The orthorectified images are all at 0.25 m/pixel scale (or 0.5 m/pixel in cases noted below), so features smaller than 1-2 m diameter cannot be correctly rectified; the result is that small-scale features like boulders appear to wag back and forth. Each GIF is timed to dwell 2 seconds on the first and last frames and 1 second on intermediate frames, but network or computer performance may cause this to vary. The legend on each image gives the exact HiRISE image identifier; see http://uahirise.org/{image identified} for more information about each image. The legend also marks the year and seasonal identifier (Ls) for each image. The Mars years begin with the first years of Mars exploration by robot spacecraft. Ls stands for areocentric longitude of the sun, dividing the year into 360 degrees to mark the seasons. Ls = 180 is the beginning of southern spring, Ls = 270 is the beginning of southern summer, and Ls = 360 (or 0) is the beginning of southern autumn. Well-preserved crater on floor of Newton Crater Each of the gifs below are enhanced color sequences from different section of this crater slope, starting with faded RSL in MY29 (except one in which the color data was largely missing), then showing a sequence of RSL forming and fading in MY30.

The Still Branch Sand is a new formation and the two new members are the Bennock Millpond Sand Member of the Still Branch Sand and the Blue Bluff Member of the Lisbon Formation. The four South Carolina formations recognized in eastern Burke CountY include the Steel Creek Formation and Snapp Formation of the Oconee Group, the Black Mingo Formation (undifferentiated), and the Congaree Formation. The Congaree Formation and Still Branch Sand are considered to be lithostratigraphic components of the Claiborne Group.
